When | 7:30 p.m. Student credit cards help colleges It's not just pizza, beer and $100 textbooks that are getting college students into credit card trouble. Their own universities have a hand in enticing some of them to take on high-interest debt.

Dozens of universities across the country, including the University of South Florida and Florida State University, are raking in millions of dollars from marketing deals with credit card issuers. The banks get student and alumni mailing lists, prime campus locations to hawk cards on game day and the use of university logos and mascots on their cards.

The promotion of debt on campus is one reason many college students graduate with a load of debt. In its "Generation Debt" study last year, the research group Demos found the average college senior has six credit cards and an average balance of just more than $3,200. Another study by student lender Nellie Mae found 92 percent of graduate students have credit cards, with an average balance of $8,612.

At a glance
Certain sectors of the economy are expected to weather this economic downturn well, according to a report released this year by consulting group Challenger, Gray & Christmas, Inc. Those areas are:

Security | The need for security is not diminishing, whether it's the U.S. protecting its borders and ports or a company protecting its valuable information. A 2007 report by the Partnership for Public Service estimated that the government would need to fill 83,000 jobs at the Defense and Homeland Security departments during the next two years.

Energy | Jobs related to oil and gas, alternative and renewable energy, and even nuclear are likely to see strong growth. The oil industry is facing a labor crisis as 80 percent of its skilled workforce nears retirement age.
